Double Kettlebell Push Press

What it is

This powerful, full-body exercise utilizes two kettlebells, employing explosive leg drive to propel them from your shoulders to an overhead lockout. It primarily targets your shoulders. You will also engage your calves, quadriceps, and triceps during this compound movement.

Technique tips

• Generate power with a sharp dip and explosive leg drive.
• Keep your core tight to stabilize your body throughout.
• Breathe out forcefully as the kettlebells travel overhead.
• Avoid pressing only with your arms; use full body momentum.
• Achieve a complete lockout overhead before lowering with control.

How to track your progress

Log the weight and reps of each set. Straddly turns every set into an estimated one-rep max, so a heavier single and a strong set of eight both count as progress, and it flags a personal record the moment you beat your best.
